This eating yogurt with a spoon at my tender can be really messy, you agree. But I have the greatest grandma and she knew to put a bib on me. Thanks grandma

Rachael and I figured we better get Annebelle's Halloween custom ready. She was so cute as a little pumpkin. But of course she would have been cute in any custom

We began the day by going to the zoo. I hadn't been to the Portland zoo in a long time. It was nice to see new exhibits. As you can see Annabell was just kicking back and relaxing. We stopped and had an elephant ear. She is enjoying every bite and wanting more. "This is the life grandma"
I'm so use to beingbehind the camera that I've decided for my posterity I need to be in more of the pictures that are taken.

The fall colors are beautiful. Aurelia wasn't use to seeing these vibrant colors. With this beautiful display of nature you can't help but believe that there is a GOD and he helped create all the spectacular wonders of our world.

Spending time with the grandchildren is one of the most enjoyable times in life. Jason and Rachael celebrated their anniversary at the Oregon coast and I stay for a few days and watched Annebelle. We had a great time visiting the zoo and OMSI. We also went to the farmers market in downtown Portland. I took my foreign exchange student from Belgium with me. The leaves were changing colors and it was beautiful. It was a fantastic weekend. One I will always remember.
